Pyelonephritis and hypertension

Pyelonephritis and hypertension.

Blood pressure changes were followed up for 1-12 years (average; 3.8 years) in 46 cases of confirmed postoperative chronic pyelonephritis which had undergone ureterocutaneostomy, nephrostomy or other urologic operations. Diastolic blood pressure levels averaged 82 mmHg before operation, and 89 mmHg in the chronic stage after the operation. The incidence of hypertension (over 100 mmHg diastolic ...

Chronic Pyelonephritis and Arterial Hypertension.

Increased Susceptibility to Pyelonephritis during Acute Hypertension

Chronic pyelonephritis and hypertensive vascular disease often coexist clinically, and a primary and causal role in the relationship usually has been attributed to the renal inflammatory disease. In experimental pyelonephritis, however, where the sequence of events and the presence of other complicating factors can be controlled, such a causal role has not been clearly established. A number of ...

Clinicopathologic correlations of renal biopsies in hypertension with pyelonephritis.

Analysis has been imalde of the responsess to symimpatheetomy for hlyperi'tenlsioni and certain other aspects of 1220 cases whose renal biopsies showed pyelonephiitis as well as arteriolar nephrosclerosis. The sex incidence, mortality, average diastolie blood pressures, uid postoperative kidney function tests differed from fimidings in larger hypertensive groul) witlhout pathologic evidence of ...

Subarachnoid haemorrhage in pregnancy with hypertension due to unilateral pyelonephritis.

THE experimental work of Goldblatt (I934) showed that in some animal species partial occlusion of one renal artery resulted in sustained hypertension, and that removal of the ischamic kidney might restore the blood pressure to its original level. The first practical application of this work was reported by Butler in 1937 from the Boston Children's Hospital. Two patients with hypertension due to...
